By launching this weblog I’m joining an already thriving community of musician weblogs and other sites out there, so as a regular feature I’m going to spotlight some of the others.

One of the first music-related weblogs I found a year or so ago was Music Thing, written by London’s Tom Whitwell. Music Thing is mostly about gear, with a focus on the odd side of music gear: homemade synthesizers, rare equipment, eBay finds, and occasionally giant robots.

Music Thing is like Engadget for musicians, and in fact Tom writes a weekly Music Thing column that appears on Engadget. If you enjoy reading about music gear as much as I do, it’s highly recommended.
